Tourismexpo goesdigital

Perthshire tourism businesses are being offered the chance to meet tour operators and travel agents online in a bid to restart and invigorate their sector.

VisitScotland’s Scotland Reconnect 2021 digital trade workshop event is running in place of the VisitScotland Expo live workshop event which would normally have been an annual feature of the business development calendar for tourism in Scotland.

Reconnect 2021 opens for registrations on Monday, March 8 at 11am.

It is anticipated that around 7500 business meetings will take place over the three days from April

Recognising the need for Scotland’s tourism businesses to maintain contact throughout COVID-time with travel intermediaries around the globe, VisitScotland has organised this following a highly successful inaugural digital event last November.

Last year’s event saw 264 buyers from 23 countries meet with 240 Scottish tourism businesses, operators and destination organisations.
